Youth and charisma paired with crusty experience?

Could work.

The other way around would actually make more sense, but Biden doesn't have the momentum that Obama has right now...

I would love that. Biden is my favorite Dem, but he obviously has no chance of winning.

I was going to say the same, about Biden/Obama. I like this idea, Biden has been the best in the debates as far as I'm concerned. I can understand if he's too sarcastic for everyone to take him seriously, but the man seems pretty solid to me. Both are pretty bi-partisan in that they attack issues the same way, trying to work out solutions instead of provide answers.

Biden just has too many skeletons. It would get awkward when the press brings up his racial faux pas.

You know, the whole 7-11 thing. Then Barack will have to explain for Biden and ...

Nah. Sorry.

Biden is a sharp mf. I've liked him for a while and he's never afraid to tell it like it is.

I love his one word answers in debates when the other candidates are going off on long explanations and spinning like mad. I may not always agree with the answers, but I like them nonetheless.

And he knows his foreign policy better than probably anyone currently in the federal government. And I mean anyone.

"Nah. Sorry."

So that makes it official. This is a great ticket and would be wonderful for our country.

Biden is well versed on foreign policy. Particularly where Obama lacks.

That is a good match. I'll concede. Little else.

Purely subjective.

Biden is probably the best candidate of the Dems. Too bad the guy has no chance at the Presidency. I like that ticket though.

That's where you're wrong.

As we've proven time and time again, when you don't like something, it is guaranteed to be a good thing.

Obama/Biden '08 = Chonnggg's Anti-Choice = sure thing

He's just too much like Hillary. They say what they're told say, in fear of pissing off the elites and blowing it.

The Democrats used to say they were adamantly opposed to the war- and I backed them up. Since they won the majority of the House, they've changed their story. They're not serving our interests, just like the Republicans.

It went from "we are adamantly opposed to this war" to "if we leave now, we will create vacuums..."

We're continuing a war based on an assumption, when he have proof that it is failing.

We've been there for 5 years. 2007, proving to be the deadliest year for U.S. troops.

The Democrats let me down. I wish Richardson, Kucinich or Gravel would get the D ticket. Our foreign policy is unmanageable.

While I would love a southerner-free White House, I think including one on the ticket would help in the election.

"Chonnggg's Anti-Choice"

Nah. I'd be cool with that. My anti-Choice (D) ticket would be:

Hillary/Obama

In the end, grit and good looks would be tough to beat.

Obama/Biden are my 2 top candidates. imo biden's problem is that he has some sharp edges and doesn't come across as well in debates, but he's the smartest, straight shootenest guy out there when you hear him talk on his own. dude has the experience to back it up.

anyway, most people don't vote based on the VP, so it doesn't matter.

I think Biden would be a good Secretary of State.

I wish the Obama camp would start leaking stories about possible running mates to kind of subconsciously solidify his spot as the top contender.

He should say he's considering Hillary.

You have to do the bolds outside the italics. For some reason it doesn't work the other way.

like this:

{i}start leaking stories about{/i} {b}{i}possible{/i}{/b} {i}running mates{/i}.

Probably not worth the effort, eh?

start leaking stories about possible running mates
